VanJess Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
You got to be sensitive with roses
Fragile but open if you want this
Never been lost in someone this fast
Gimme love, all of me is yours to take
Long as you don't break the trust
'Cause I used dumb enough to rush the lust
We just starting out
This the time we lose our minds
Like we off of it
Yeah, we in another plane, another space
In-our-own-world shit, baby
We got way too much to say
Before I give that okay, okay
You got to be sensitive with roses
Fragile but open if you want this
Never been lost in someone this fast
Gimme love, all of me is yours to take
Gimme love, all of me is yours to take
I been through it all (it all)
I don't trust in no one (no one)
You came in and changed it all
You changed it, you changed it
I need you to stay consistent
Come find me, my heart is aching
You could be the one I'm missing
I'm vacant, I'm here
You got to be sensitive with roses
Fragile but open if you want this
Never been lost in someone this fast
Gimme love, all of me is yours to take
Gimme love, all of me is yours to take
The song "Roses" by VanJess talks about the nature of relationships and the importance of being sensitive towards the other person. The metaphor of "roses" is used to highlight the idea that relationships are fragile and need to be handled with care. The lyrics, "You got to be sensitive with roses, Fragile but open if you want this" conveys the message that while love can be beautiful and fulfilling, it can also be delicate and easily broken. The singers, VanJess, express their vulnerability and openness to love, stating "Never been lost in someone this fast, Gimme love, all of me is yours to take", thereby revealing their desire for love but also the need for the other person’s affection and loyalty.
The song also touches on past experiences and how they can affect our present relationships. The lyrics, "I been through it all (it all), I don't trust in no one (no one), You came in and changed it all, You changed it, you changed it" show the impact of past hurts and betrayals on a person’s ability to trust others. It highlights the need for consistency and reliability in a relationship for it to work, as mentioned in "I need you to stay consistent, Come find me, my heart is aching, You could be the one I'm missing, I'm vacant, I'm here". This shows that while the singers are willing to open themselves up to love, they need it to be reciprocated with trust and loyalty.
